I don't even get how you can say the rezound has a slow UI when the gnex has a really really gritty UI that lags all the time. That was the killer for the gnex for me.
Thank you Motodroidlife!!! I completely 100% agree with you on the placement of the headphone jack. It's so stupid how some phones have the headphone jack on the top of the device. Who would honestly put their phone in their pocket upright? You would have to like flip the phone once you get it out anyway. Great review btw, I'll be sure to subscribe :)
@motodroidlife, wow I just found your videos and I must say, you are a really calm and very informative reviewer/tour youtuber, keep doing what you do because you are very good and I am now subscribed.
Given that the Galaxy Nexus doesn't support USB mass storage and instead relies on Media Transfer Protocol I'd like to see a demo of how you go about transferring media from both a Windows and Mac pc.
Great review. Does the Nexus come with 5 to 7 home screens by default? If so, are you able to set to as to 1,2 or more based on the number of icons? Please rely asap.
@MRchapterfour08 would be cool, but its not possible to view 1080p on a 720p display. even if 1080p was possible on a display that small you would have to squint so hard your eyes would bleed.
Who cares about no shutter lag lol...it can't even got 2000 in a quad rent and Lin pack is even worse..and look how long it takes to go from landscape to portrait even with that gay animation its slooooow as fuck ill stick with the gs2 until the gs3 thanks all you 12 year old hype beasts
@nikko110982 he Galaxy Nexus scores higher on quadrant scores that are actually updated for ICS.. AnAnTu benchmark is updated for ICS and outscores the S2. You really need to know your facts first before you spit a bunch of crap facts..
@zeester0101 go to where he opens up google maps. you see above back, home, and multitasking, that a new grey bar appears. that has search, layers, ect. on the right side, closest to the multitasking button, there are three vertical buttons. that acts as the menu key and only shows up when the app needs it.
Good to know that it doesn't re-orient when upside down... if you're the one being sideways, and ever try to keep it in landscape, you'll appreciate it.
LIked the speaker volume suggestion but can't find it in android market
